I paid for the items and store them together with the tomes that I had been given by Matilda and Jean Lethal. Mages, Druids and Necromancer didn't make any requests as they were seen as long-range offensive threats.
We walked to the tavern and Matilda asked what I am going to do with the tomes. ”Don't worry, I'd be back in 10 minutes.” as I drifted off to my meditative state and went to the Realm of Mind and went to the Fusion Chamber.
I pushed the slider to DUPLICATE / MULTIPLY and I place every single tome and I turned the counter on how much I need to multiplier it while I closed the door and pulled the crank.
*DING* Duplicate Multiplier Success. 100 tomes multiplied.
”Sigh, if only I could duplicate gems this way, it would be better...” I sighed outwardly and removed the duplicated tomes and store it back in my storage and I repeated the whole process. It was 30 minutes past and I logged off and returned to the real world.
”Hahahahha...see, I told you. The silly boy just want to have some shut-eye and now he's baccckkkkk...” joked Matilda in her usual ways and I passed all the tomes that were bought by them earlier.
”What did you do to the tomes, Robin?” asked Stef as she sensed I was up to something when I grinned from ear to ear.
”Oh... It's a little something for everyone, I wish we could buy more but I think these should suit more than enough. Frankly, with these tomes, we could hire some 800 more adventurers but we need something like 30 support staffs to cook meals daily for them.”
”I knew you did something to the tomes, heh... I should have known your devious plans from the way your grin is. You are such a devil, Robin, in a good way.”
”Hmm...? A good devil?” Matilda was munching through an Ebi burger she had gotten from Macdonalds and looked at me then she purposely sticks out her tongue to provoke me to say something about her snacking again.
”Hahahahaha... I'm not going to say anything more, granny's cutie pie. Better go and read and learn the tome. I want to buy some more tomes unrelated to battle.”
I went to the Peddler again and picked tomes like cooking, fishing, scouting, setting traps, farming, gathering resources, herbalism and some others that would prove beneficial in the future for the support members.
I paid up and went back to where the rest were sitting. Once again, I duplicated these tomes for a total number of 25 copies each and stored them for future use.
”Boss, you sure are making these people lose money. Hoo Hoo Hoo... But these NPC are not complaining one bit.” after Jean Lethal looked at what I had purchased for the support members and thought it was a good idea.
I smiled and after we had a short break, we went to the announcement area where there are quite a number of bulletin boards erected. There were some small party raids and since Matilda and Jean Lethal had read their tomes, it's time to Level up those and increase their passive skills immediately.
Soon after, we chose a large party raid, which pays out 55% gold coins based on our party and adds a 1:2 multiplier on the number of enemies. A minimum of 50 demons was being partied on their other side and we went through a portal to bring us to our destination.
All of Matilda's and Jean Lethal's passive skills were at Level 1 when we entered the battlefield and when we emerged back in town, the levels had increased to 15.A few more of those similar party raids had increased them all to Level 35 and the damage ratings had increased more than 1450%.
”Hii Hii Hii... Thanks to these party raids, these new skills we had learnt are a great benefit to our normal hack and slash physical attacks, don't you think JL? Even with 50 demons on a large scale is still effortless. At least now, these passive assaults are being multiplied with our current refinements, enhancements as well as our socketed gems in our equipment and accessories.”
”Yup, just keep your stats hidden so no one knows. This is our little secret. These adventurers need to ask around and not presume every tome drops from grinding monsters. Or even from their clans, that would need them to make the clan contribution before they can acquire the tomes.”
”Us Vagabonds are an all-rounder and we can read up any spells and skills we want to without causing an adverse effect,” I explained as once we had surpassed level 4, no one is eligible to join a clan where they have their own bands made up of 4 sub-clans.
Once we had resolved our matters, we head back to Matilda's Granny little thatched hut to rest and relax before heading back to Camp Salvation the next evening.
